Hello all,

I'm glad that I finally registered as a member. My name is David and I live in St. Louis.   My typical cigar routine involves getting really focused on the current cigar market what's out there new as well as my old favorites (saint Louis ray, Fuente Hemingway, rocky Patel edge, padron anniversary, cao Brazilian, la flora Dominican and others), stocking up and disappearing from the current events and cigar lounges for several months or until I run low.  at my last cigar binge I stocked up on Olivia v, San Latano ovals, Alec Bradley black markets,  Perdomo champagne and 10 year anniversary.  As these dwindle down, I then jump back into the market and get back in the know and stock up the humidors.  most recently, I have gotten into some Funte sharks, crowned heads, La Barba purples and my father cigars.  

I have always known that a big part of my cigar enjoyment was related to that "jump back into the market" phase and that researching, hunting and dreaming of cigars is quite important to me.  Because of this i have decided to take it a bit slower this time and not just spend a week stocking up but letting the humidor stay 1/2 full and keep the research phase ongoing.  

Thus! joining the fanatics!  

I look forward to trading, learning, sharing and creating friendships with fellow cigar enthusiasts and maybe even connecting with other in person that are local to the St. Louis area
